| Description | One of the major milestones in the twenty-year history of modern administrative justice was a pair of decisions from the late noughties. The President was subjected to review by administrative courts after refusing to appoint certain judicial candidates as judges due to their low age. The conclusion that the President is an administrative body and that his decisions can be administrative decisions aroused considerable controversy in the months that followed. This paper will briefly summarize the doctrinal reflection and pause to consider why even authors (who generally allow review of the 200 President’s decisions) do not find the Supreme Administrative Court’s review framework persuasive. The problematic nature of the criteria in question will be demonstrated with an example from the field. |
